Nothing like being awakened with the news that there's a vomit situation that
requires your attention. That's what I met with this morning, being the
designated clean-up squad for doggie-related messes. Good times.

Presumably this weekend will be the end of the slow flow of news caused by the
holiday season. I may take advantage of the quiet to goof off later, though if I
do, I will check in to make sure we're on top of any major developments.

I've never played any of the VC games. One of those series' that I always meant to try, but never got around to. I don't think I've even seen actual gameplay outside of tv commercials, just parodies of gameplay. I'm not even sure I know what the point of them are!

Mostly to cause havoc. Think of a Midtown Madness(oh how I loved that game) combined with some kind of shitty 3rd person shooter.

A message of hope to those who choose to hear it,and a warning to those who do not.

WTF is this Foxy women ad by UGO? It's so awesome I had to click on it but it says these women are into video games?! BULLSHIT there is no fucking way. This must be made-up. It says this one smoking hot chick made references to fucking BALDUR'S GATE. _NO_ woman has ever played Baldur's Gate that looks like that. There is just no fucking way. I'm throwing down my bullshit flag right now

At the risk of being shouted down, I've never really cared for the Civ series...with the exception of XCom and Silent Storm, I prefer real time stuff...

I'm just the opposite, I can't get into the real time "strategy" games. I personally don't find much strategy in them, it's more action/reaction than strategy, where with turn based play like Civ, strategy does come into play because you have to plan ahead and try to predict what your opponent is going to do several moves ahead.

I got to work at about 6:15 this morning and proceeded to endure about 6 power blackouts in about 50 minutes. Then it went off for good at 7:15. I left an hour later and the wind had really picked up. According to weather.com, we were expected to see gusts of 55-65 mph, with local gusts up to 75. About 3 inches of rain expected today and tomorrow. More rain after that but probably lesser amounts.

Power was off at home when I got back and just came on a few minutes ago....
